m68k-wrs-vxworks Cross compiler no longer supported???

m68k-wrs-vxworks Cross compiler no longer supported???

[Phil Prentice]

Hi

   I have successfully been using 2.95.3 configured as 
--target=m68k-wrs-vxworks  as a cross compiler running on Linux.

   Fairly recently I came across some code that the gcc 2.95.3 compiler did 
not handle correctly ( the object code failed to run correctly, it seemed to 
optimise out some 'c' statements).

   I tried building the new 3.4.2 compiler.  However the build failed telling 
me that  the target m68k-wrs-vxworks is no longer supported??


  I have successfully built the compiler with 3.3.5 with this target.  
However if I find any similar problems with this version, will  I be in a 
position to get any support/help?

  Is it the end of support for --target-wrs-vxworks???

  Possible alternatives???

  Any comments welcome.

  Thanks
     Phil

Can you please post a log of the build?

Sorry for the delay in responding.

Thanks for all the responses

I have attached two log files.  The first is the output of configure which 
appears to run successfully.

The second is the output of make.  This ones fails with the error

*** Configuration m68k-wrs-vxworks not supported

Should configure have told me this or is it a bug in the build??


Thanks again

  Phil

  I would imagine WRS still support it.

1.  Stick with 3.3.5.
2.  Undeprecate the target yourself by fixing the sources?
